A derived class should return true for this function if it implements its own versions of the backbone_backbone_energy, backbone_sidechain_energy and sidechain_sidechain_energy functions. The default sidechain_sidechain_energy implemented by the TwoBodyEnergy base class calls residue_pair_energy. If the derived class implements its own versions of these functions, then calling code may avoid calling it on pairs of residues that are "provably distant" based on a pair of bounding spheres for a sidechains and backbones and this method's atomic_interaction_cutoff energy method.

Batch computation of rotamer pair energies. Need not be overriden in derived class -- by default, iterates over all pairs of rotamers, and calls derived class's residue_pair_energy method. Since short range rotamer pairs may not need calculation, the default method looks at blocks of residue type pairs and only calls the residue_pair_energy method if the rotamer pairs are within range.

Batch computation of rotamer/background energies. Need not be overriden in derived class -- by default, iterates over all rotamers in the set, and calls derived class's residue_pair_energy method for each one against the background rotamer Since short range rotamer pairs may not need calculation, the default method looks at blocks of residue type pairs and only calls the residue_pair_energy method if the rotamer pairs are within range.

how far apart must two heavy atoms be to have a zero interaction energy?

If hydrogen atoms interact at the same range as heavy atoms, then this distance should build-in a 2 * max-bound-h-distance-cutoff buffer. There is an improper mixing here between run-time aquired chemical knowledge (max-bound-h-distance-cutoff) and compile time aquired scoring knowledge (max atom cutoff); this could be resolved by adding a boolean uses_hydrogen_interaction_distance() to the SRTBEnergy class along with a method of the ChemicalManager max_bound_h_distance_cutoff().
